"His level of ignorance is so profound that President Obama is reportedly planning to spend an unusual amount of time with Trump, more than President Bush spent with him, to try to prepare Trump for the next four years."
Even the people on his team have no idea how government works. From the WSJ:
"Nor did Trump realize he had to hire a staff. The Wall Street Journal wrote that Trump aides “were … as unaware that the entire presidential staff working in the West Wing had to be replaced at the end of Mr. Obama’s term.”
It's like watching an old "Keystone Cops" movie. A bunch of idiots, not one of whom have any experience in government, or are even educated about government, running around the White House like kindergarteners.

My entire identity is not melded into a party or some political messiah. What I am is horrified that the person elected to the Office of the Presidency is so profoundly unqualified. And that horror comes precisely out of my support for my country. That said, when Obama won, not too many of you were willing to take the "buck up, for the good of America," etc., advice, were you?

As for Obama's experience, I think it speaks for itself. There are other kinds of experience that speak excellence other than "business." And our country is not a "business."

But, of course, it won't matter what "evidence" I supply. You'll just dismiss the source, as usual, because it doesn't line up with what you prefer to believe.

Trump is "the establishment." Always has been. Even now, he's spending most of his time with Wall Streeters and billionaires. Wake up.
As for my own relationship to "the establishment": I've been fighting it for a very long time--longer, probably, than you've been alive. And I can promise you that "the cancer of corruption" will be entering the White House in January 2017.

Do you not see that there is something very, very strange when one sees a political candidate as some sort of savior? When one cannot brook any criticism of him whatsoever? That's cult-like behavior. How in the world do you ever expect to hold Trump's feet to the fire--as Jefferson demanded of the "true patriot"--if you are unwilling to even hear criticism of him--much less engage, on your own, in even constructive criticism of him?
P.S. Many of those people just walked away and took the loss; Trump's lawyers can be very intimidating--as when they threatened one guy that they would keep him in court so many years, he would have nothing. He couldn't afford it. What else could he do?

You're posting like a child and nobody cares if you're horrified, if you're so horrified, move out of america, nobody is stopping you and nobody will miss you. I'm an open minded equal opportunity supporter of the candidate that is better, i don't automatically support a party regardless of the incompetence of the candidate, you're posting all this junk about Trump being 'unqualified' when your candidate is the worst candidate who has ever run for POTUS, she wasn't even close to being qualified, she's been in politics for decades and has done nothing but cause death, destruction and chaos, she's an airhead who put america at risk by her stupidity, doesn't know what a classified document is, she's running around like a little schoolgirl with america's safety at her fingertips without a care in the world and you're telling me Trump is unqualified? She's done nothing, makes nothing, creates nothing and stands for nothing.
Truth, in spades ^^^. Thank God for the ignore button.

How the hell WOULD he know? Trump is a private businessperson, not a career politician!
He is going to be learning on the job, just as Obama had to when he got in there.

He's a swindler and a crook who did not even have the balls to show his tax returns...nothing like that was on Obama's resume when he "got there"...
Who's going to impeach him? GOP controls House and Senate. This guy will never resign, he will leave the country a black smoking ruin before he would ever considering doing that.
Don't forget the mid-term elections. It will be a bloodbath...
Obama had worked around government, was a state senator then a Senator from Il, briefly. He did have an idea of the process. He had also been to law school. He probably knew how it worked.
We have years of folks telling us that government should be run like a business. They are not the same, never have been never will be.
The thing about this election that puzzles me is the willingness of those who are clueless to trivialize everything they are ignorant about.

Oh, please! I'm so sick and damn tired of you naysayers who think you are smart. Donald Trump knows full well what a President does.
Enough with the sour grapes and the propaganda and lies. Get over your hate! And call in your dogs, your paid "protesters" who are damaging property, attacking innocent people and acting like *******s!
The Democrat Party is showing their true colors. The Party is a mess, and they are reacting with violence and vitriol. A day ago Bob Corker was attacked by a Democrat "professor" who didn't like the fact that Trump was elected. In New York a man was attacked who was wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat.
These people have forgotten what America is about (if they ever knew in the first place). They want that "progressive utopia" that people like 'Crooked Hillary' and Bernie Sanders has sold them on, which doesn't exist. Look at the mess in Europe. That is why the U.K. voted out of the EU. Progressive elitism destroys nations.
